摘要

Much recent attention has focused on the gasoline additive methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), which is mobile and persistent in the environment. As demonstrated in several highly publicized cases, the additive has contaminated public water supplies. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent to address the MTBE problem, but two other gasoline additives that are far more toxic have been mostly overlooked. The volatile organic chemicals 1,2-dibromoethane (ethylene dibromide; EDB) and 1,2-dichloroethane (DCA) were ubiquitous components of lead-based antiknock additive mixtures, which were used from the 1920s through the late 1980s to increase gasoline octane ratings. EDB and DCA are probable human carcinogens with federal maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) of 0.05 and 5 μg/L, respectively. Lead is no longer used in gasoline in the U.S., but EDB and DCA still linger in the environment.
